Pantograph Disconnector up to 1,000 kV

The SX is a space saving double scissor aluminium disconnector connecting the lower busbar to the upper one via the pantograph arms. Horizontal rather than vertical separation means a space reduction of as much as 30%.

Customer Benefits

Reduced substation space requirements (up to 30%)
Clear conducting routing for safety
Rigid or flex busbars for flexibility
Double scissor design for high rigidity
Built-in ground switches available
Virtually maintenance free
Easy start-up and commissioning

Main Characteristics

Specifications

Drawings

Rugged performance in adverse conditions including high winds and heavy ice, stable in closed potion during short circuits
Blades are extra heavy, one piece, tubular aluminium with replaceable silver plated copper contacts
Galvanized structural steel channel base supports the insulators and live parts, providing high strength and rigid design
All bearings and counter-balancing springs are isolated from the main path
Vertical separation design offers space reduction as much as 30%
Clear busbar arrangement and routing results in increased safety during operation and maintenance
Flexible installation and arrangement configurations
